The abstract boundary construction of Scott and Szekeres is a general and flexible way to define singularities in General Relativity. The abstract boundary construction also proves of great utility when applied to questions about more…

Singularities play an important role in General Relativity and have been shown to be an inherent feature of most physically reasonable space-times. Despite this, there are many aspects of singularities that are not qualitatively or…

A new scheme is proposed for dealing with the problem of singularities in General Relativity. The proposal is, however, much more general than this. It can be used to deal with manifolds of any dimension which are endowed with nothing more…

The Endpoint Theorem links the existence of a sequence (curve), without accumulation points, in a manifold to the existence of an open embedding of that manifold so that the image of the given sequence (curve) has a unique endpoint. It…

We prove two theorems on the removal of singularities on the boundary of a pseudo-holomorphic curve. In one theorem, we need no apriori assumption on the area of the curve. The proof uses a doubling argument with the goal of converting…

In a recent paper O. Gannot and M. Wrochna considered the Klein-Gordon equation on an asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetime subject to Robin boundary conditions, proving in particular a propagation of singularity theorem. In this work we…

The abstract boundary construction of Scott and Szekeres provides a `boundary' for any n-dimensional, paracompact, connected, Hausdorff, smooth manifold. Singularities may then be defined as objects within this boundary. In a previous paper…

We study local variations of causal curves in a space-time with respect to b-length (or generalised affine parameter length). In a convex normal neighbourhood, causal curves of maximal metric length are geodesics. Using variational…

The {\em abstract boundary\/} (or {\em {\em a\/}-boundary\/}) of Scott and Szekeres \cite{Scott94} constitutes a ``boundary'' to any $n$-dimensional, paracompact, connected, Hausdorff, $C^\infty$-manifold (without a boundary in the usual…

We prove that for continuous Lorentz-Finsler spaces timelike completeness implies inextendibility. Furthermore, we prove that under suitable locally Lipschitz conditions on the Finsler fundamental function the continuous causal curves that…

Singularity theorems of general relativity utilize the notion of causal geodesic incompleteness as a criterion of the presence of a spacetime singularity. The incompleteness of a causal curve implies the end and/or beginning of the…

Given two hyperbolic curves over p-adic local fields, the absolute anabelian conjecture claims that any isomorphism between their \'etale fundamental group comes from an isomorphism of schemes. This conjecture was proven by S. Mochizuki for…

We extend the scope of the Raychaudhuri-Komar singularity theorem of General Relativity to affine theories of gravity with and without torsion. We first generalize the existing focusing theorems using time-like and null congruences of…

The singular set of a viscosity solution to a Hamilton-Jacobi equation is known to propagate, from any noncritical singular point, along singular characteristics which are curves satisfying certain differential inclusions. In the…
